LENIN

 

The syphilis and Stalin stuck him

into the lunatic asylum all day long

he was going in a wheelchair down

the alleys in the park of the clinic,

the nurse who pushed the wheelchair

was listening to his lamentations and

to his ideas talkative, she flattered him

with “comrade brilliant leader” but

she shut her mouth when Lenin broke

forth in the moments of lucidity.

“Listen, comradess, I was a voice

above the sea of rebellious people and

this voice could belong to anyone else...

one million Robespierres were howling

inside me: Terror! Terror! Terror! But

if it had been the voice of L. N. Tolstoy,

it would have remained only his, it could

not have been changed by anybody,

it had been only his, and only his, voice

what a giant! I was mad from the beginning:

the horde of rabid Genghis Khans were

constantly cabling me, ‘Kill them all!’”

His head fell to his chest he howled

once and kicked the bucket. Performing

the autopsy the doctors discovered

an immense void in between his cerebral

spheres and from there a leftover of howl

gushed forth.
